>The Citizen’s Convention: The Second Battle for Trenton Begins
History in the Making: April 16, 2011
New Jersey’s First Tea Party Convention
On April 16, 2011, a consortium of New Jersey Tea Party organizations will conduct an historic statewide convention for all New Jersey citizens concerned about an out of control government that continues to operate at odds to the best interests and common good of all of its citizens.
The convention will be held at the National Conference Center in East Windsor NJ. While some details are being finalized, this historic first is open to anyone who shares the commitment to conservative and constitutional principles, lower taxes and smaller, smarter government
The up-coming 2011 elections in New Jersey are providing a unique opportunity to change the legislature in our state and restore New Jersey to its once proud conservative roots and common sense foundation. With only 4 states having statewide legislative elections this year, the eyes of the country will be on New Jersey.
In addition to presenting candidates who been vetted by Tea Party groups from all over New Jersey and who have committed themselves to conservative values, we will be conducting workshops for attendees to learn the nuts and bolts of political campaigns from some of the most successful professionals who are also knowledgeable about NJ politics. Attendees will receive precise instructions on how they can get their candidates elected.
One organizer stated, “We have an opportunity to reclaim our state and change the way government is run in New Jersey, but we cannot do it alone. As the first Battle of Trenton turned the tide of the American Revolution, we have a second opportunity to do the same thing: turn the tide on intrusive government and fight to preserve the ideals of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, except this time around we won’t be using guns, cannons, or bayonets.”
Said another, “That’s right, this time we have a much more powerful tool at our disposal: The Constitution. But, we need to use that historic document as it was intended to be used to protect our rights and our freedoms.”
The time for change is now. The reason is the same as it was almost 235 years ago: Citizens who have simply had enough of an intrusive bureaucracy and are committed to reclaiming our constitutional rights from a corrupt and abusive political power structure. Join us, April 16th, 2011 and be a part of history.
